I’ve just made an awesome discovery! I was having a surf and came across this page detailing the chemical composition of the human body broken down by element. This is an awesome, awesome thing because armed with that page, knowledge of my own body mass, and a periodic table, I can calculate my own atomic

So, I’m back at work after a particularly restful holiday. Restful for everything except my gob, that is. I’ve spent an unholy amount of time sitting in Starbucks gabbing, sitting in the living room gabbing (until the sun came up!), sitting in the garden gabbing, and just generally, you know, gabbing.

I haven’t been. I’ve let my novel slip horribly due to all the stupid but necessary wrangles that have been going on in my life. But things are calming down a little now. An excerpt of the first chapter was read out last night, and chapter nine is underway. Just need to keep the pace

Been a bit quiet lately. With good reason too – if you check the “I love it when this happens” post below, you’ll see that I’m working on a book. Well, I’m now about 23,000 words into the first draft and that’s only made possible by not spending loads of time writing on here. So

It started out with a short, funny, story about a seance, written by a very talented bloke at my writer’s group. “I’ve never written a story about a seance,” I thought. Then I started thinking “What if…” and before I knew what had happened, I had a 2,000 word short which I was quite proud
